The old villages of Altmädewitz, Altreetz and Altwustrow were built centuries before the drainage and colonization of the Oderbruch as settlements for fishermen at the time. The colonist villages Neukietz, Neuküstrinchen, Neumädewitz, Neuranft, Neurüdnitz, Neureetz and Neuwustrow, on the other hand, date from the second half of the 18th century.

railroad

Former Neu Rüdnitz station (2009)

The Wriezen - Jädickendorf railway line, opened in 1892, with the Altmädewitz, Alt Reetz and Neu Rüdnitz stations west of the Oder, ran through what is now the municipality. The track on the section between Wriezen and the Oder was dismantled in 1945 as a reparation payment , but rebuilt around 1955 in connection with the rebuilding of the blown up Oder bridge. In 1957, passenger traffic between Wriezen and Neu Rüdnitz was resumed. The last passenger trains ran in 1982, but the line remained operational for military purposes.

Oder bridge at Bienenwerder

After the fall of the Wall , around 2000, the Deutsche Bahn had the line dismantled and in 2005 an asphalt bike path was created on the route, part of the Oder-Neisse cycle path . The Europabrücke Neurüdnitz – Siekierki is the longest bridge over the Oder and was built around 1920. The viaduct consists of two bridges, one behind the other, each 330 meters long. This structure has been closed because of massive damage since the mid-2010s. The EU has now released funds for renovation, with the help of which the steel girder bridge is to be made usable again by 2021. Cyclists and hikers can then reach the Moryńer Heights on the Polish side and the Moryner See on short distances from Neurüdnitz.
